Red for Ed Wednesdays Return

(August 1, 2023) INVERNESS, FL -- Citrus County Education Association is calling for all public education advocates to recommit to the Wear Red for Ed campaign through the 2023-2024 school year. Red for Ed is both a statewide and national effort to draw much needed attention to the funding crisis which is impacting classrooms across the country. Wearing red on Wednesdays throughout the year is a show of solidarity and a visible reminder of the ongoing struggle to appropriately fund public education.

In designating Wednesdays as our Wear Red for Ed day each week

Activists: Florida's legislative session is starting next week, and SB 256 will be heard on the first day. This bill seeks to silence the voices of educators and union members, and we must join together to let legislators know this bill is bad for educators and public education.
